Mount Sinai Medical Center Has a Troubled Past With Patient Care
A 2025 Miami Herald article gathered safety grade data from the Leapfrog Group—the report showed that Mount Sinai Medical Center earned a D in Fall 2024. The hospital’s performance has declined since at least 2021, when it held a C grade for over two years before slipping to a D in 2024. This performance reflects a troubling pattern, including past incidents of legal issues stemming from patient care failures.
- In 2003, a patient underwent intraspinal surgery to repair a spinal fluid leak. The attending neurosurgeon allegedly injected the patient with a drug that clearly warned against using it as an intraspinal injection. She is now bedridden, in constant pain, and unable to return to her job as a nurse. A jury awarded the patient $38 million.
- In 2016, a man was allegedly beaten and choked to death by his roommate at Mount Sinai Medical Center. The roommate, who had outstanding warrants for drug charges, was admitted involuntarily to the psychiatric health unit.
Incidents such as these happen when hospital staff are negligent in their duties, failing to meet the standard of care and risking the lives of patients who place their trust in them. If you or someone you love was injured due to a negligent hospital or medical professional, you have the right to hold them accountable.
